sidered, only as•a plausible pretext for prevent ing future communication between tho revolters and the rest of the army.:— ST. PETZUBUROLL, MARCH 7. An order of the day, of let March, which was addressed to all the corps of the Guards, excited some sensation, and proves that the renewed insurrection of the mountain tribes of the Canians against the protectorate of Russia, which they had for merly recognized, is considered by the Government itself as not without importance. The order of the day here mentioned is that which the Emperor addressed to the soldiers of some companies of the Guards implicated in the insurrection of the 2fith of. December, telling them that when he pardoned them, because he considered them to have been misled by . ill-disposed persons,he designed to give them the first favourable opportunity of washing out this stain, by employing them in actual service. Such an opportunity, say the Order of the Day, now presents itself. His Majesty the Emperor has received information from the Commander-in-ddef of the Corps of Caucasia, that the con tinuance of the insurrection in the country of the Tschetschenzcs compels General Jermaloff to adopt decisive measures, at the commencement of the Spring, to chastise these rebellious moun taineers. Two battalions are therefore to be formed of these soldiers, and sent to Caucansus, from which they are to return to St. Petersburgh as soon as the mountaineers are reduced to obedience. The expected arrival of the funeral procession of the late Emperor Alexander is now the general subject of interest and conversation in the capital. We already hear people arranging when and where they will he able to have the best view of it.— The account of the funerat•eeremonies, &c. which fills eleven printed sheets, informs us of the route which the pro cession will take from its entrance at the Moscow Gate till it reaches the Casan Cathedral, which has been fitted tap at the expence. of. 80,000 rubles, with truly imperial magnificenee.; - in astyle suitable to the dignity of the occasion. The lie itt state for a week in the church. The occupiers of houses in the streets through which the procession will pass are already calculating the ample tri bute which curiosity will be obliged to pay to them, they talk of 3 or 400 rubles (in hank notes) for the hire of a single window on the occasion. Many persons here have still great apprehensions for the day of the funeral ; they fear, perhaps not wholly with out reason, that a coup de main is ay be attempted by the evil minded, who, as repOrt says, are still at work in the dark. A t ell•events the Government takes the most vigorous precaution. Thus only last week, in consequence of an obscure popular report, all the vaults under the Cason Cathedral were strictly examined by military and police officers. It was suspected that gunpowder was concealed in them. Nirith the exception Of a small quantity of wine in some of them, which had been l e t by the ecclesiastical authorities to private wine merchants, no thing was found in them. Every thing was ordered to be im mediately removed from the vaults. Seals were put on the doors, and ti -military - guard stationed at every entrance. It is .well known that the traitors, arrested on the 26th December, had previously the project of executing their atrocious purposes on the very day of the interment.—(.4llgemeitte Zcitung, March 211.) On Saturday Mr. Tyr.v.coTE, the King's Mes senger, arrived at the Foreign Office in Down ing.street, with dispatches from the British Mi nister at Mexico. Yesterday Sir HERBERT TAYLOR and the ME- C:ers of the Staff of the Duke of YORK transacted business with his Royal Highness at his house iii South Audiey.street. Yesterday Prince Por.lowic, the French Am bassador, transacted business at the Foreign Office. Letters were received yeiterday from Rio de Janeiro, dated the 24th of January. They state that it has been determined by the EstrEtton to make Monte Video a free port, open alike to the trade . of all nations, and to place it under the protection of Great Britain. Whether this ar. Tenement has received the sanction of the Eng lish Ministry, or is made contingent to their ap -probation, does not appear from the letters. The long-neglected measure of the formation of a Le. Aislature for Brazil is at length, it seems, again brought under the consideration of the Emperor, w l ►os as a preparatory step, has nominat ed 120 . s I nUiVidUillS to the rank of Senators, who are to form the upper house of the new Congress. Our conjectures with regard to the erroneous date assigned to the Bengal Hurkaru, in the prints of Saturday, turns out to have been cor rect.

Rh MAJESTY has made a second donation of 1 ,0001. to the Spitalfields Committee. Under the authority of the King of DENMARK, the Bishop of Iceland is, in conjunction with the Other bishops and superior clergy, to draw up for the celebration of the I,oooth anniversary of introduction of Christianity Into Denmark, an 'historical essay' on the baptism of King Harold 'Rink, and its effects in spreading Christianity in .Denmark : it is to be printed at the King's ex pence, and. distributed amongst the clergy, but Ills Majesty does not intend that there shall be any solemnities on the occasion to induce far ther expence.—(Dunish Paper.) Orders have been received by several of the most eminent bankers and professional gentlemen of Edinburgh, to attend the Committee of the House of Commons on the subject of the cur rency. It is stated that the decease of the late Bishop of DURHAM occurring after 12 o'clock, that is, on the morn ,ing of the 25th ult. being quarter day, has given his represen tetirt4 the emoluments of one half year, which would nothave 'been the case had he died before twelve the night preceding. Mr. Wir.sort Cuoren has arrived from Log lend, for the purpose, it is said, of canvassing the 'University. A report is in circulation that on 'the retirement of Lord Norbury, the present A ttorney.General is to be the Chief Justice of the Common Pleas ; and that the bustle in the University is occasioned by the supposition that ,his Lordship is about to tender his resignation.— • ( Dublin Paper.) In carrying the improvements in the neighbour hood of Charing-cross into effect, the dead wall in St. Martin's-lane, opposite the Church, was taken "wit yesterday evening, thus leaving the nobl l e . t °Titco.. of that fine edifice open to Pall- the gold.alid silver coins, deposited a short linl6 si nce in the foundation stone of Ombersley ;New .cliorch, were stolen one night last week.

The general anticipation of a large deficiency in the Quarter's Revenue, cast a gloom on the Market, and at one o'clock the quotation for Con sols was 791. Opinions fluctuate as to the amount of the apprehended defalcation in the Quarter, from 4 to 600,0001. The transactions of the day have been in considerable.

Soon after this calamity, preparations were made to repair the mischief which had thus been done, and to re-construct the spires in cast iron. The different works proceeded with great activity and success. Already the tower on which the spire is to he erected is completely rebuilt and restored. The third story has been increased a few feet in height, but the proportions between it and the lower stories has been duly preserved. This permitted a less abrupt transition from the top of the windows to the 001 and beautiful ballustrade with which the building is surmounted. The architect, M. ALAvotNE, had previously restored the Cathedral Church of Seer in .Normandy. The practicability of his plan has been proved, and he has contrived to give to this new spire the beauty, the lightness, and the elegance so characteristic of the architecture of the age in which this church was erected. The angles of the tower will be ornamented wish four minarets, and the spire from the grid will be 442 feet in height, and thus surpasses nny other in Europe. A spiral staircase will lend to a !anthem, serving the purpose of Astronomical observations, and which will be surmounted with a cross. The tout ensemble of this grand spire will leave nothing to be regretted, and presents the double advantage of being in perfect harmony with the rest of the building, and at the same time fire-proof. MO:VILLE ISLAND...- The Admiral Cockburn, on her way from Nei South Wales to Batavia, touched at Melville bland, a settlement lately formed by order of the British Government. Site brings information that the natural pro ductions of the settlement are of the Spice Island description. . Wild nutmegs and cloves are found in abundance. The trees are of a very large growth, some of them producing a gum of remarkably astringent quality. On the shores of the settlement were found quantities of the sea slag, designated Tra Pang, or Douche de la Mer, so valuable in thy China market, but not so abundant as it, Is supposed to exist further to eastward. The settlers had cleared, in Sep tember last, above two hundred acres, which produced almost every vegetable except the potatoe, which seemed to decline. Captain Bar low of the 3d Buffs, who was resident, was indefatigable in his endeavours to promote the welfare of the young settlement. He had disco vered a fine fresh water river on Bathurst Island, (luring an excursion in one of the Admiral Cock ht4rn's boats, but nothing could induce the natives to an intercourse with the settlers up to the time of the sailing of the Admiral Cockburn, in Sep tember last,, notwithstanding every inducement had been held out to that , object. LEOMINSTER AND LUDLOW BANKS.---We regret to state that on Monda Messrs. COLEMAN and W ELLN Ludlow, I GS, bankers, and on Tuesday, Messrs. Coleman, Morris, and Sons, hankers, Leominster, in consequence of the sudden and unexpected demands made upon them, deemed it prudent to suspend their payments for the pre sent. Both firms state, that a statement of their affairs will be immediately submitted to the cre ditors. Messrs. Coleman, Morris, and Sons make no doubt that they shall have a considerable sur plus, after all demands are discharged. These additional failures will cause much distress, as the circulation of both houses was large.—(llere 'ford Independent.) FASHIONABLE INTELLIGENCE. TILE KING. Wtrinson., ~Arrut. 3.—This day, at half-past one o'clock, his MAJrsTY, accompanied by one of his distinguished atten dants, left, the Royal Lodge in his pony phaeton, and took the most pleasant route, through the new plantations and Chapel Wood, to Virginia Water.

His Majesty, after inspecting the improvements carrying on at Virginia 'Water, returned by the same route to the Royal Lodge. His Majesty, considering his late illness, looks very well, but is much thinner. ARRIVAL OF THE PRINCESS AUGUSTA. Yesterday the Princess AUGUSTA came to town for the season, which is about a month later in the London season than her Royal Highness has been accustomed to for some years past; which delay has been occasioned by her Royal High ness's residence in the King's Palace being thrown open at the north end, in consequence of the late residence of the Duke of Clarence, which adjoined it, being pulled down, to build another for the Duke and Duchess upon an enlarged scale, and more conveniently laid out upon the same scite, with a small addition of ground, there not having been a party-wall between the Royal Duke's former residence and the Princess's. The domestics of the Princess left her Royal Highness's mansion at Frogutore, near Windsor, yesterday morning soon after ten o'clock, in three carriages, and arrived at her Royal Highness's residence in tl.e King's Palace, St. James's, about half-past twelve. The Princess, attended by Miss Wynyard, left Frog more in her Royal Highness's travelling chariot and four, and proceeded to the King's Palace, Kensington, where the Prin cess alighted, on a visit to her Royal Sister, the Prikess Sophia, where her Royal Highness was joined by. ,the Duches of Glou cester.

THE THEATRES. COVENT-GARDEN TREATR.E.—The Tragedy of Mcwbeth was perroimed • • last night,' when Mr. WARM ap peered for the first time on the Wards of our metropolis as the hem and victim of ambition.—Mr. WinDE has been steadily working his way in - the favour of the public since his engage ment at this house, and that, too, not under the most favourable arrangements that, could have been made for him. His Macbeth, without any pretensions to a perfect representation of what the divine Bard imagined arid set down, displayed points of acting which were not only calculated to , advance the reputation of the actor, but did credit to the art which he professes. The perform ance was not one which depended upon the general keeping 'of the character, for Mr. WAIIDE appeared not unfrequently to be merely reading the language of the Poet, forgetting that he was the representative of a man whose every word betrays the working of some passion, or the excitement of a deeply agitated mind. This discrepancy was particularly remarkable in the dagger soliloquy, and in the scenes which immediately follow it. In the first he seemed entirely absorbed in the awful subli mity of the Poet's Conception, and however the effort might lose by invidious comparison, it was evidently out of strong feeling, and it produced a powerful effect upon the audience. But after his return from the chamber of Duncan, when the deed so terrible in thought is perpetrated, and the remem brance of its " deep damnation" palsies every energy of the murderer—then Mr. \Verde failed to express even the same degree of horror which marked his acting in the preliminary scene. The celebrated speech after the discovery of the murder was not more successful. In the banquet scene there was nothing remarkably effective, although it could not fairly be charged with any decided vice or fault. The closing scenes of the tragedy were sustained with considerable power, and the combat was better managed than any thing of the kind we have seen for a long time. COOPER was the ilfacdujj; which he plays with much feeling and abilitY.—Miss LACY repeated her Lady Macbeth with great success. She did not, however, ap pear to feel or to comniunicate the terror which the character ought to inspire, in the same degree as on the first night of her performing it.—After the fall of the curtain there was a call for Air. WARDE, which that lientleman very properly declined to answer for a considerable time; but as the clamour was kept lap by a portion of the audience, he came forward, received their vociferous applause, and announced the performances of the succeeding evening. ENGLISH OPERA il 0 [PM-MATHEWS' invita tions were again most numerously accepted last night ; and never did the entertainments provided afford more apparent satisfaction to the assembled guests of all descriptions. Anxr.rut T.ttEvrttx.—Mr. YATEs brought for ward his new Entertainment last night. It consisted of a variety of Sketches from Life and Manners, and was announced to the Public as Yates's Reminiscence; ; or, Etchings of Life and Character. Though evidently a copy of the style of Mathews (which by the way could not possibly be avoided), it was nevertheless a successful effort, and will doubtless become . a source of considerable attraction. Mr. Yates begins his En, tertainment at the earliest period of h is theatrical campaign, and carries it progressively on thr ou g h its various vicissitudes until his partnership with Mr. Terry, relating in his way many laughable incidents which had occurred during his life, and which (as they were intended) did not fail to con.. tribute largely to the amusement of his auditory. It was, of course, inundated with the usual quantity of puns,— some vile, a nd some which it would be unjust to revile (that fellow will 'be the death of me.) The songs, of which there are six, arc extremely good, particularly Vauxhall- Gardens. Though the song hinges upon the old joke of the citizen proceeding up the water to the Gardens, and grumbling at the thin slices of ham when he gets there, yet there is much humour in it, and the puns are passable enough, to wit—the party in the boat are inquiring, upon passing Cum. berland Gardens, what those ruins were ; upon being told of of the fire, one of them asks if there was any thing valuable destroyed ; the waterman replies only a barrel•orgen ; to which • another - rejoins, "Oh 1 that was because the engine could not play upon it." The Theatrical fund Dinner is also an admirable song, and affords Mr. Yates a capital opportunity of imitating the voice and peculiarities. of many brothers of stock and buskin—the imitations of Young, C. leemble, Ma creedy, Jones, Blanchard, Faweet, &ahem, and Farren, were 1 easily recognized, and well applauded. There were several ex cellent anecdotes scattered throughout the entertainment, and they did not fail to tell, especially two upon one occasion, when Mr. Yates performed lago to Mathews' Othello, at Liverpool. There was a great deal of fun about this, and theoddi ties of AI aster Charles were hit off to a nicety. The other was a sly rap at the rapacity of the Great Lessee, and his alternate joy, grief, and despair when a great House had congregated, and a note was received by him from the Tragedian, - stating his inability from illness to attend that evening. This told un commonly well, and the various manseuvres of the Mairager to get the 'rragedian•to go on for the pert (King Richard the Third) were - highly relished. One character, Mrs. Paulina Pry, (the best drawn character in the entertainment) we could have wished had had a little more to do. It was adrnirably drawn, and the knowledge of her friends. concerns not more acceptable to herself than the audience. Iler iong, -. " The Pawnbroker's Shop, " was quite en original, and created .roars of laughter. A Aonopologue, called Mr. Chairman, con cluded the night's. amusement, in which Mr. Yates sustained eight characters, viz. The Chairman—Scrape, a Chimney Sweep-,-Barnaby Half and Ilalf, a Landlord—Peter Snicks, a Poet—Bob Major, a Bell Ringer—Airs. bush, a Mackerel Woman—Miss Von Broonfergthen, a Dutch Broom Seller— and Mrs. Paulina Pry. It is needless to say, that they were all well supported—the changes were quick and effective. The house was crammed to an excess. SPORTING INTELLIGENCE.
